Cladding Wind Loading Analysis

Take action in early design to lower your project risk and increase overall safety through fast, iterative cladding wind loading analysis.

Why cladding wind loading analysis matters

Understanding cladding wind loads not only allows you to adhere to building codes, but has major impacts on cladding choices down the line. By using our more refined pressure mapping, designers save time dealing with unexpected surprises and save cost through informed material selection.

Identify façade issues early

Improve occupant safety and comfort

Reduce overall carbon footprint

How cladding wind loading analysis works

The Orbital Stack simulator runs pressure coefficients on the entire façade of your building at a resolution of 1-4 meters, returning not only mean values but the more meaningful minimum and maximum pressures. This means you can see predicted pressures in real-time while instantly iterating to find your ideal configuration at the conception stage.

Think beyond the building code with Orbital Stack.

What users are saying

“The efficiency of Orbital Stack not only saves time in the design process but also contributes to creating safer and more sustainable environments. By providing detailed data on wind interaction with facades, the platform becomes an invaluable tool for optimizing energy efficiency and the habitability of spaces. In summary, Orbital Stack represents a significant advancement in wind simulation, offering professionals a comprehensive and powerful tool that drives excellence in architectural and urban design.” – Arq. Armando Montes de Oca, PM, The Façade Studio
